Pineapple Fried Rice

Serves 2

Ingredients

  • 140g rice, cooked per instructions
  • 200g tin of pineapple chunks in juice, cut into smaller pieces

Method

  • Cook your rice and set aside
  • Heat a large frying pan on a medium-high heat and add the pineapple pieces with a very small amount of juice.
  • When the juice has evaporated and the pineapple is starting to caramelise, add a little more juice and wait again.
  • Once dry, add a drizzle of oil and add the garlic and chilli
  • Stir for a few minutes and then add the spring onion
  • Cook all of it together for 5-7 minutes until fragrant
  • Add the rice, a good glug of pineapple juice and the soy sauce (taste for amount)
  • Sprinkle a generous pinch of salt in and stir
  • Cook for another 5 minutes then stir in the coriander and cook for a further 2-5mins
  • If you’re feeling fancy, sprinkle in some turmeric to make it yellow 😀
